Had an ultrasound today and bloodwork. I am all good to start my meds tomorrow morning! I am excited but very nervous. We made this embryo during an IVF cycle 4 years ago (along with one other, DD) and have known the sex since then. I feel really emotionally attached already.

onyx, I found temping really frustrating. Too many outside factors like being sick or waking up at night was always throwing me off. Sorry for the frustration.

When I did it with DS2 I had no problems. I was hoping to use it again buttt thatโs basically how Iโm feeling right now. I just quit and said ok temping wonโt happen this cycle, because they were all over the place and just irritating me. This month may just be a game of chance Iโm thinking. ๐ญ

I had a ton of bloodwork done this morning and for the first time I had what must have been a total panic attack. My throat felt like it was closing up, I felt like barfing and passing out at the same time. I could help but cry and it was kind of the worst.

I think I just need to be patient and give my body a chance to figure out what itโs doing. If you're sick, you could ovulate later than normal. It's possible you haven't missed it yet. Keep trying OPKs, something could pop up.

katespade, I'm so sorry you had to experience that. Panic attacks are absolutely awful.

I'm doing a lot better than I was earlier this week. After my shitty ultrasound, I was pretty upset and frustrated. I did lots of googling about mini-IVF, even though I always said I would never ever do another cycle. I have two healthy kids from my one IVF cycle and don't want to deal with my own moral personal issues of any leftover frozen embryos. The thought of more shots (particularly progesterone butt shots) finally shook me out of my spiral. I just need to be patient and wait like a normal person.
But I don't know how to be a normal person! I keep telling myself that 1) I'm only 33. 2) It's only been 3 months (4 follicles total). 3) There is no reason to think my eggs are crap (that's my main fear, that my egg quality has tanked). 4) It doesn't matter if I get pregnant now or 6 months from now, the kid will still be 3 grades behind my son (I'm also freaking out about the growing age gap).
Sorry for my venting session. I needed to type all that out.

robotsvswrestlers, Like for commiseration. Infertility can be so frustrating. So many decisions to make. So many what ifs. I also have 2 kids, and I worry about what direction I will go if this cycle doesn't work. No need to apologize for venting, it's a lot. Sending hugs and good thoughts your way.

Luckily my only problem is I have never really ovulated on my own. So theoretically I should be successful with enough medicated cycles to force ovulation. Iโm just so terrified I have a lurking issue I donโt know about and Iโm wasting my time. I am sending positive thoughts for your FET. Since you know the sex, I assume you had genetic testing and itโs a good looking embryo?

I thought I had a super super squinter yesterday and possibly this morning but MH sees absolutely nothing and itโs making me feel crazy. Iโm 12dpo and need to know for sure soon so I can stop taking progesterone if needed. But I also have a super busy week coming up and donโt know how Iโd even make it to get bloodwork so ugh. Hoping that tomorrowโs FMU gives me more answers and direction.

Fearsy I have everything crossed for you!!! CD 15 - My OPK now has almost no line so Iโm thinking I misread one this week? Oh well. I guess I will see what happens. If AF doesnโt show up by CD 28 Iโll test, if she does then Iโll try again next month.

only CD9 here. me and MH have a lot of sex all the time, always, so iโm not even going to use OPKs this month. just track CM mostly. iโm worried that even if we get pregnant again this cycle, it wonโt last. itโs exhausting.

I donโt even know what to think. My test this morning had a second line within 5min. It was enough to make me take my progesterone dose and think Iโm not out yet. But then by the time MH laid eyes on it a few hours later, it was a squinty squinter and he said he saw nothing. He thinks Iโm crazy. I think Iโm crazy. I threw out all of my used tests and now Iโm just waiting for my period (supposed to be tomorrow). This is only our second cycle but gosh itโs tougher than I remember.

Iโm sorry Fearsy. It consistently takes me 36hr after my last progesterone dose to start bleeding (FYI just in case you have a mental rollercoaster tomorrow waiting.)
